Breath of Life
Life goes, comes... goes...
Minutes pass, hours pass, days pass.
So time goes... comes...
Life goes on.
I see life passing by,
I feel the longing squeezing,
I feel like I want
I want a lot to whom I leave
With time it goes
Go my life
With time I give myself
Whom I love so much in life.
Life that is not mine,
Life that is hers.
My life...
Life I gave her.
At home. Rio de Janeiro, October 1989
